    They're in alphabetical order Roo, so I found it easier to start from left to right as Chelsea is easily identifiable on the first row.

    It is difficult, I'll try and find a bigger pic, but the teams are a mix of English and Scottish and an Irish rogue is in there aswell somewhere.

    Good point from SC I missed, alphabetical order, that should help.

    I now realise you're working from right to left. In which case 8 is not Blackburn. Blackburn is number 8 if you're going from left to right.

    Sort it out man <laugh>.

    I still have mine in mint condition.

    And the 1970 England World Cup Squad medals.

    And the 1972 FA Cup Winners medals.

    And the 1974 British Dream Team for the World Cup in West Germany.

    There was also a series of football booklets which Esso produced but unfortunately they went missing decades ago.

    Plymouth followed by Portsmouth

    Dundee second row 5 in.
    Hearts 4th on the same line after the break.

  20. I remember collecting footballer busts, in the early 70s. They were the heads of international footballers in white plastic, mounted on white plastic plinths. I specifically remember the Bobby Moore and Pele ones.
